Effects of repetitive Iodine Thyroid Blocking on the Fetal Brain and Thyroid in rats: a Systems Biology approach [Cortex]


ABSTRACT: Our group showed that repetitive dose of KI for eight days offers efficient protection against radiation exposure during nuclear accidents without toxic effects in adult rats. However, the effect of repetitive KI on the developing fetus still unknown especially on brain development, but a correlation between the impaired maternal thyroid status and a decrease in intelligence quotient has been observed. In this study, gene expression analysis of the progeny of repetitive KI-administered pregnant rats performed by our group showed distinct gene expression profile from two different organs: thyroid and cortex. To understand how these differentially expressed genes are implicated in the observed behaviour change, a systems biology approach was used to construct networks using three different techniques; Bayesian statistics using ShrinkNet, sPLS-DA on the DIABLO platform using mixOmics and manual construction of a Process Descriptive network. For each organ, we were able to construct gene expression network, to select genes that are most contributing to either control or KI-treated groups, respectively, and to construct the PD network from differentially expressed (DE) gene enriched with data from publications. Furthermore, we were able to connect DE genes from both organs into one network with genes from both organ participating in the same cellular processes that affect mitophagy and neuronal outgrowth.
